2018 CollectA Plains Zebra

These photos don't do this model justice. It is a fantastic zebra. Although my favorite is the former Schleich Zebras (Not the 2018 ones), but this is my second favorite. And what an improvement from their first Zebra. Very realistic details. Without shadow stripes, I assume this is an east African Plains Zebra and not a southern species. Enjoy!

It is a beautyful zebra !
I love the head, which shows how nervous and extremely alert they are.
The paintwork is very good also

Now I just googeled the zebra sub species, and am chocked to see that most are nearly threatened with extinction
Perhaps a bit like passenger pigions. There were so many that we thought they would last forever, but when Homo Sapiens puts their mind to it, they can ruin everything

Oh my. I need this one!

Wow !

Very beautiful

Congrats Shawn!
Where did you get them? Mine has unbarred belly and inner sides of upper legs - like the pattern of Grevy's.
Thanks.

I got these two and my CollectA Hippo on Ebay. I could not wait for it to be available at the online stores!

Many thanks for your help Shawn. I will check it.

Shawn, the first link shows photo of the unbarred one. Did you buy it from this store or the second link?

Oh Donny, I meant to get back to you. You caught me. I extended the stripes myself to its belly as well as the inside legs and connected a few body stripes. I looked up plains zebra stripes on the Net and showed the stripes go under the belly and go up most of the way in the inside of the legs. So I made my own stripes by a quick paint job.

That explains everything Shawn. Of course the correct pattern is the barred one. That's why I was so anxious to get one. Great job with the stripes. I thought it was the company painting.

Anyway I really appreciate your help Shawn.

Lovely Zebra
